THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TIMES-RECORDER. THURSDAY. MORNING JUNE 9. 1910. PURELY •VEGETABLE EQUAL TO A SPEEDWAY ARE ROADS OE SUMTER It is a generally recognized facr that medicines taken from the botanical kingdom are better adapted to the delicate human system, and safer in every way, than those composed of strong mineral mixtures, In tlie early settlement of this land, our forefathers were obliged to procure their medicines from Nature’s great laboratories of forest and field. They searched out ar.d compounded the different vegetable materials into teas, concoctions and medicines. That these pioneers found the most potent and valuable of the roots, herbs and barks placed at their disposal, is abundantly proven by the fact that the great majority of them were blessed •with rugged health. They cured their diseases and were enabled to do the great preliminary work of civilization because the remedies they used were Nature's remedies, and specially adapted to the needs of humanity. Among the very best of these vegetable preparations is S. S. S., a medi- O nf lu<rh« 9ml hnrlre i*s cnol< . * v_ _ Another Big Compliment to Sumter’s Roads. Tlie merited compliments showered Ji'on Sumer county's good roads — magnificent reeds, In fact—:;u:ne fre quently from sources outside the state, evidencing the truth that the fame of our highways is spreading to distant points and attracting settlers here. The settlers—investors in Sumer’s lands—are coming; scores of them; tc join the score of others who came CHEMIST FOUND S.8.S. FREE FROM MINERALS.
